This is not the first time ABT Strikes onto the Audi RS 6 Avant but its once again they surprise us with unbearable numbers to think about. A wagon that packs 730 HP under the hood strictly sounds absurd.
ABT thinks otherwise with their brand-new model of the Audi RS 6 Avant that packs that exact amount and a lot of torque under the hood, the only catch being, only 125 are ever going to be produced by the tuner, making them quite unique at first sight from now on, and probably very rare in a couple of years.
The Audi RS 6 Avant is by no means a normal wagon. Audi RS estates are literally among the reasons why we tend to love these long-roof vehicles. Combining the utility of a family automobile with extraordinary performance numbers are these vehicles’ plat de résistance, and also the RS 6 Avant is one prime example of that.
Featuring a twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter mild-hybrid V8 that generates 591 H.P. (441 kilowatts) and 800 Newton-meters (590 pound-feet) torque, the RS 6 Avant crosses over into the supercar class, however with the potential to seat up to 5 individuals well.
But those are rookie numbers for ABT Sportline and its RS6-R. On the far side the bevy of body kits that build the ABT-tuned RS6-R look a lot more beastly than it already is, the twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 makes a humongous 730 H.P. (533 kW) and 920 Nm (679 lb-ft) of torque. These numbers allow the RS6-R to reach 62 miles per hour (100 kilometers per hour) within 3.2 seconds from a complete standstill and tap out at 199 mph (320 km/h).
The video on top, done by Auditography on YouTube, offers you a more in-depth look at the 2020 ABT Sportline Audi RS6-R. The channel additionally did its own performance tests on the wagon, primarily confirming the numbers released by the German tuner.
We’ve had the possibility to drive the Audi RS6-R in Germany, and in fact, it didn’t disappoint. Of note, solely 125 units of this souped-up Audi wagon are going to be made.
They don’t come low cost, though. The complete upgrade kit prices 69,900 euros ($75,600 with the present exchange rates), which might already buy you an optioned chevy corvette C8. This effectively brings the price of the car up to 205,900 euros ($222,800).
